I have written some documentation on the YP functions - just drop by http://www.php-er.com/chapters/YP_Functions.html If you do use the docs, please let me know if you find any inconsistencies or problems. I will incorporate the changes into the docs. Note that the formatting is a bit rough - that will be fixed in a few days. If no one gets to it first, I will write up docs for the PHP manual for the missing YP functions. However, I would like it if someone with a working PHP/YP setup could help verify the information and provide some technical editing. :) -- Zak Greant PHP Quality Assurance Team http://qa.php.net/ "We must be the change we wish to see." - M.
